Answer:

The walkway has area 216 sq ft the pool has area (15 ft)(16 ft)=240 sq ft

Together a total area of (216 sq ft+225 sq ft)=441 sq ft since The pool and path form a square (the pool is 15ft x 15 ft and the path uniform around it)

The sides (s) of the total area are

s%5E2=441+sq+ft

s=sqrt%28441+sq+ft%29=21+feet

Each side of the total area spans the width of the path on one side then the width of the pool then the path on the other side so:

Total side=width of path + width of pool + width of path= 2*width of path+width of pool

width of path=(Total width-width of pool)/2

width of path=(21 feet - 15 feet)/2= 6 feet/2=3 Feet

ANSWER the width of the path is 3 feet

A polynomial has zeros x=0, x= -3, X = 4. What are some possible factored equations for this fourth degree polynomial.
kati45 [8]

Answer:

x^{2} (x + 3)(x - 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

You can multiply this out to get the full equations.

It's to the 4th degree so the x on the outside has to be squared to add the fourth degree.

To get other zeros:

x + 3 = 0

x = -3

x - 4 = 0

x = 4

Hope this helped. :0)

A ball is thrown from first base to second base and then from second base to home plate. How many feet has the ball been thrown?
RSB [31]

Answer:

B. 90 + 90 √2

Step-by-step explanation:

From first base to the second base, it will travel 90 feet.

From the second base to the home plate, it will travel a longer distance.  How much?  Well, if you look at the layout of the field, you'll see that if you draw a line from second base to the home plate, you'll form two rectangular triangles, one with the 1st base, another one with the 3rd base.

The line from the 2nd base to home plate is the hypotenuse, which we can easily find by:

h²=90² + 90²

h = √(2 * 90²)

h = 90 √2

So, from second base to home plate, the ball has traveled 90 √2

Overall: 90 + 90 √2

Louisa’s savings change by -$6 each time she goes bowling. In all, it changed by -$66 during the summer. How many times did she
Sav [38]

Answer: She went 11 times during the summer.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Louisa's savings change by -6 each time she goes bowling and it went to -66, that means that Louisa went another 11 times.

\frac{1}{11}

So therefore your answer would be 11.
